quantity #
Facilitates working with physical quantities.
This is a work in progress; this package's API may change significantly.
Some parts are currently unfinished, untested and/or undocumented. Use at your own risk.
Quick start #
// Import the core library
import 'package:quantity/quantity_si.dart';
// Construct an Angle in radians
var ang = new Angle(rad: 1.1);
// Construct an Angle in degrees
var ang2 = new Angle(deg: 270);
// Find the difference
var diff = ang2 - ang;
// Display the result in degrees
print(diff.valueInUnits(Angle.degrees);
Key Features #
- Typed quantities (such as
Length
,Mass
andTemperature
) that are easy to construct and use in calculations. - Encourages use of standard units by isolating non-standard units in an extension library.
- Support for relative standard uncertainty in quantity values and calculations.
- Allows use of arbitrary precision values (as well as complex and imaginary values).
- Provides access to the latest official constant values published by NIST.
- Integration with Dart's existing
Duration
andDateTime
classes. - Extensive set of quantity types and standard and non-standard units.
- Support for untyped quantities having unusual dimensions with the
MiscQuantity
class. - Models quantity ranges, including special support for angle ranges and time spans.
- Includes a mutable quantity with streams.
- Metric prefixes for any unit.
